Rask (upper body) won't play Saturday against the Sabres or Sunday versus New Jersey, Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The report suggests via coach Bruce Cassidy that Rask's upper-body injury isn't thought to be major, but the Bruins will play it safe with their No. 1 goalie and hold him out this weekend. Now it remains to be seen if Jaroslav Halak will draw back-to-back starts or give way to either Daniel Vladar or Jeremy Swayman in one of the Bruins' two weekend contests.
